In their 49-29 victory over the Bears on Sunday, the Cowboys dominated the game from the time they took the pitch.
Before their bye week, the Cowboys had a 6-2 record thanks to a number of huge performances from important players on both sides of the ball. While the defence had four more sacks and one touchdown of their own, the offence scored six touchdowns.
Diggs would have had his fourth interception of the year if not for a roughing the passer call that went against Dallas. Rather, he tied the team record with eight tackles for the day, but he also had several pass deflections to limit the Bears’ passing attack.
– It appears that Lamb is starting to establish himself as WR1. He orchestrated a series of drives that eventually resulted in touchdowns for others, but he also scored one of his own. Lamb ended the day with a score and 77 yards on just five catches.
– Gallup was a crucial component to the Cowboys hot start offensively with multiple catches before they moved away from him in the latter part of the game. In total, Gallup had four catches for 49 yards with his longest reception checking in at 17 yards.
– What can you say about Damone Clark? The Cowboys’ fifth-round pick this season was just placed on the active roster after coming back from neck vertebrae fusion surgery in March. He was expected to miss the season, but instead he played 67 snaps after Anthony Barr left with a hamstring injury and had six tackles.
– biggest play of the game likely came when the Cowboys needed it most. With the Bears’ surging late in the first half and attempting to go for the 2-point try, Tank busted right through the Chicago offensive line to level Justin Fields. He wasn’t credited with the sack then, but he would eventually get one later.
